Josep Borrell, Head of Commercial Strategy takes us inside Valencia CF’s commercial program. Josep made the move to Valencia CF from the agency side where he spent two and a half years at Nielsen, in London, including roles as a Football Account Manager and a Commercial Insights Manager.
Playing in Spain’s La Liga, Valencia have a great footballing history and celebrated their centenary year in 2019 by winning the Copa del Rey, Spain’s annual knockout football competition. Not only does Valencia CF have a great footballing history, they also have a real and deliberate connection with the Valencia region and that absolutely translates positively to Valencia’s commercial program.
Those efforts include the Valencia Innovation Hub and a business club they established during their centenary year that has seen other football clubs reaching out and connecting.
